The 23rd annual Computers in Libraries conference was this week – alas, I didn’t go. (You might ask if I ever go to the fun conferences. That would be a good question.) However, thanks to bloggers, Technorati, and an inordinate amount of procrastination at work (I mean, professional development), I can read all about it – almost like I was really there!
Searching Technorati for the tag “cil2008” will lead you to the conference blogosphere, there’s a conference wiki where many presenters will be posting their slides and presentations, and a twitter feed.
Some of the buzz I’ve read:
- The Pechu Kucha panel was very fun and informative
- Online Outreach for Libraries – from Sarah Houghton-Jan
- Also, the Technology Training for Library Staff preconference
- Millennial Mythology
- Conference Wrapup from Meredith Farkas
It’s becoming more and more easy to follow conferences and really get into it! This would be a great conference for Tech Talkers to think about attending in the future. Maybe we should think up a panel for next year…
